After shoveling my stretch of sidewalk this morning, I flipped the four-wheel-drive switch in my truck and set about roaming the city for pictures in the snow. It’s a routine I’ve been following my whole career. It’s no secret that readers love weather stories. Happily, I like shooting pictures in the weather. It’s a pretty sweet relationship.
